Pisistratus' great achievement was becoming the tyrant ruler of Athens in 546 BCE. He achieved this by creating a populist following, feigning an attack on himself to gain sympathy, and then capitalizing on the fear and support of the common people to seize power. He enacted various reforms during his time as tyrant, such as land redistribution and expanded access to education, which benefited the lower classes and solidified his rule.
Tyrant of Athens in the second half of the 6th Century BCE. Appointed to resolve looming civil war between the aristocrats and the repressed lower class.
He ended debt-slavery and bought back the farmers sold into slavery. He limited the absolute power of the aristocrats, hoping to bring about an acceptable balance. He left office at the ed of his year, and things slipped back, so that there was popular support for the rise of a tyrant Pisistratus to restore a workable balance to Athenian society.
In the ancient Greek city-state of Athens, many famous reformers of society came and went during its long and interesting history. Just one of these was Socrates, an old philosopher who sought to become his best self while urging his fellow Athenians to do the same. He was put to death by the Athenian authorities in 399 BC (or, BCE).
The relationship Telemachus and Pisistratus have is a very close friendship. This shows a lot in the Odyssey. One time is when Telemachus kicks Pisistratus to wake him up. This is a sign that they're like brothers. If Telemachus and Pisistratus weren't friends, and Pisistratus was simply a guest for Telemachus, Telemachus wouldn't have kicked Pisistratus. Another time it is shown is when Telemachus is talking to Pisistratus and Pisistratus is telling Telemachus that he has to get home or Nestor, his father will kill him (to put it in modern terms). This gives the reader an idea of how the two young men have a good connection and can just talk to each other like that.
Pisistratus gained the support of the poor, rural people by establishing wise land laws.
It is important for Telemachus to meet Pisistratus because Pisistratus provides guidance and support to Telemachus on his journey to find his father, Odysseus. Pisistratus also helps Telemachus navigate the challenges he faces when he visits other cities searching for information about his father. Their meeting strengthens Telemachus' resolve and gives him a companion on his quest.

There had been no democracy. Pisistratus was appointed to curb the rapacious power of the rich oligarchs and give justice to the less affluent citizens. He was successful in this, passing control to his two sons on his death. Democracy began after they were expelled, and Cleisthenes took control from the oligarchs who attempted to return to power.
